The Awakening Performance Avväxten

Avväxten is based on poet David Väyrynen's forthcoming poetry collection of the same name - a single long sermon delivered at the meeting that concludes the rural community Storberget/Isovaara/Stuorváris jubilee week. The performance is an attempt to reconstruct that meeting, aiming to spread the community's message: if the earth is to continue bearing humanity, humans must begin placing significantly less weight on its shoulders.

For the jubilee celebration, members of similar associations have been invited - those who sympathize with the idea of always choosing the earth's wellbeing before humanity's. The speech is intended to strengthen and remind in times of doubt or poor harvest.
